random thoughts – Day 1,923 – (Sunday) – weekend update

Things are rosy outside.
The final day of the four-day weekend enjoyed a healthier state than days two and three suffered. Whatever had me in its grip with sinus issues, headache, and a tender throat had largely made it’s way out of my system after around 48 hours. Now, with the exception of a few tiny sniffles, I feel much better again. The health seems rosier, just in time for the workweek. Yay. The countdown clock shows six more workdays until the dreaded layoff, after which things look much more murky and less rosy.

It was another lazy day of solitude. The rainy morning produced soft silvery-gray light in the house. After a while, the sun came through and the light shifted to buttery yellow tones and the A/C kicked in. 

A box of crystal wine glasses and champagne flutes was packed up and labeled for the still unknown future dwelling. In preparation for the start of The Gilded Age season three premier tonight, season two played on the TV all afternoon. I love the costuming and the music and the depiction of wealthy New York society of the time. 

More lilies.
The basic Sunday chores were completed – laundry done, sheets changed, Kiki’s litter box cleaned, trash gathered and rolled to the curb. Overall, it was a quiet weekend at The BungaLowell. Sedate, bordering on comatose, even. But not awful. Definitely calmer than some of the headline-making events taking place in the world at large. 

Things were livelier outside. More lilies have opened in the front yard and the nearby rosebush is still showing some vibrant red-pink blooms.
